BMT and authenticity
There is no A-Check in the true sense, because we are not going to judge your authenticity. We are at a museum event, and the museum expects us all to be able to achieve authenticity on our own.

What we as the organizer of the reenactment camp do and offer instead:
The A-Schnack
The Schnack takes place on Saturday and Sunday in a rather cozy setting in the Heydenwall camp. Where exactly this is and who the contact person is will be announced in advance and on site. As a rule, the A-Schnack takes place with Annin and other interested people in the Flusenhandwerk tent.
There you can talk to us and the other participants about your equipment. It's best if you come in the garment you want us to talk about together or bring whatever you want to talk about.
The following aspects play a role: What were you thinking? Does the presentation create a coherent overall picture? And how can you further improve or expand it? What you do with it afterwards and how much of the feedback you take with you is of course up to you.
The key questions about the person you are portraying are included:
- Which period does it belong to?
- Where does she come from?
- To which social group does it belong (e.g. class, profession)?
- To what extent is she representative (common / unusual)?
In addition to your outfit, the focus can be on everything that belongs to the environment of your depiction: camp, battle, trade, crafts, goods. We also like to talk about your camp or the group's concept of representation. Because the authenticity of the camps is admittedly not an uncomplicated point, we hope that you will be particularly interested in exchanging ideas in order to make it easier to improve the overall quality.
